Unhidden: Unmask Shame, Embrace Authority, and Lead Others to Christ

DAY 4 OF 5

Day Four | Walking in Authority – You’ve Been Given Access

Jesus didn’t just save you from sin—He seated you in heavenly places, restored you, and gave you access to authority. Luke 10:19 declares He has given you power to tread over the enemy (on serpents and scorpions). This is not arrogance—it’s delegated authority through Christ.

Ephesians 1 reveals that the same power that raised Christ from the dead is working in you. You’ve been given access to victory, boldness, and spiritual authority, but many believers live as if they’re still powerless. Why? Because they don’t know what they carry.

You are not weak. You are not voiceless. Romans 8:11 declares that resurrection power lives inside of you. Authority isn’t about control—it’s about alignment. As you align with God’s Word and Spirit, you walk in the authority Jesus secured. That authority isn’t for show—it’s for purpose. You carry Kingdom authority because you are in Christ—He has all authority, and you’ve been commissioned (Matthew 28:18-20) to advance the Kingdom.

Proverbs 28:1 says, “The righteous are bold as a lion.” Living unhidden means rejecting a powerless life and stepping into spiritual authority—not for self-glory, but to establish God’s will on earth.

The enemy’s strategy is to keep you unaware of your authority, so you settle for survival when God destined you for dominion. Walking in authority means refusing to be intimidated by darkness, doubt, or delay. It means speaking life over what looks dead, standing firm in truth when lies surround you, and declaring God’s promises even when your feelings tell you otherwise.

Authority isn't a feeling—it’s a fact rooted in Christ’s finished work. When you understand that heaven backs your obedience, you stop shrinking in spiritual battles. You don’t beg for victory—you enforce it. Romans 5:17 says we reign in life through Jesus Christ. That reign isn’t just for eternity; it’s for here and now.

You don’t have to earn what Jesus already gave. You are a woman of God, called to intercede, to lead, to speak life, and to war in the Spirit. Authority is not a feeling—it’s a fact. Walk in it.

Your Reflection Question:
What would change in your life if you truly believed you carried Kingdom authority?

Pray This Prayer:
Jesus, thank You for giving me access to Your power and authority. I silence the lie that I’m powerless. I declare that I walk in boldness, wisdom, and victory through You. Use me to shift atmospheres and advance Your Kingdom. In your Holy name. Amen.

See you on Day Five.
